“You arse nothing to do with it. Novorossiya land is populated by Russian speaking to voted to join Russia. It is people wish.”
Not where I live, man, see me deer every day going to hay bailers market (or whatever they say).
People don’t seem to grasp the relative meat quantities available. There are 94 million cows and 35 million deer. The meat on cows is almost 10 times what a deer provides (not to mention that deer have next to no fat, which is needed by people). In a year, at most, no more deer, and that’s just cows. And then there is pork...
I have no doubt that the urban ferals will eventually try to make their way out here into the hinterlands. Right now, there is an overabundance of deer, turkey, trout, but that will change as even hinterlanders begin to compete for the meat.
“climate alarmists who want to do away with fossil fuels have no concept of the ramifications of that folly”
But the thing is, they know FULL WELL what the ramifications are, at least the leaders (followers not so much). They’re as educated and knowledgeable as anyone on our side (probably more, actually).
But we always lose because we try to ‘educate’ the in the ‘errors of their ways’, when that’s not problem with the leaders...and they just laugh at us.
Until our leaders accept them for what they are, pure evil, and deal with them that way, we’ll keep losing.
This statement at the beginning of the article shows part of the problem. So many hedge funds and so much "asset" management and so much investment advice spews forth daily and splashes across the political landscape as well.
The average American has never needed asset management, merely the good advice to "save for a rainy day" and not hand over their savings to people who will only profit from it, even through losses to "investors."
The financialization of everything and easy credit has become the drug of choice for too many, who now owe more than they can repay, and the poster child for this is the US Treasury, courtesy of politics. Time to abrogate national debt, period, and start over.
On a side note, this important topic seems to not interest the cadres of Freepers whose only and deep interest has been Covid and the non-vaccine vaccines, and non-NATO and non-allies Ukraine and Russia, as "one issue" voters. A far greater threat to our beloved nation has been the massive rise in national debt, a true "real and present danger" now. Courtesy of Democrats and RINOs exclusively.
Societal collapse and chaos is not a bug, it’s a feature of Western economic policy. It’s hard to start a Great Reset when everyone is fat and happy.
except for the children of the corn eyes thingy
He is literally saying worse than the Great Depression.
Of course, it is also possible that it will usher in a Marxist revolution. However, I think most people understand by now that Marxist’s & their Progressive allies have no capacity to govern. That is obvious from looking at any Blue city.
My folks grew up in the depression and always talked about how little fake was around by mid 30’s
There may be that many deer and cattle but I speculate that 2/3 will be taken by people who know little and waste most of it
Without refrigeration that problem becomes even more relevant
But even if everything was used efficiently and there was no need to leave replacement stock that’s likely far less than a years worth of meat for each person and next season there won’t be anything
I know in some areas it’s a viable strategy but in most it’s likely not
Excellent point
They sky is falling! The sky is falling!
‘Cheap money’ has only been around since about GWB’s 2nd term. Hardly 20 years.
Many of us remember the rising prices/interest rates that started during the Nixon-Ford era and skyrocketed during the Carter era. We adjusted. We survived.
The current hyperbole makes for newsies filling up print space/cable air time. The economy is like a pendulum — it swings back and forth, usually taking a couple or more decades. These used to be called economic corrections. Painful yes. But necessary.
We are beginning to pay in pain for the near-zero GWB interest rates.
Some caution is needed here. Yes, inflation is a problem but derailing the world economic train with sudden and ridiculous rate hikes is worse.
We should be lowering taxes and HOLDING rates steady.
Oh BS. Crashing the world’s economy on purpose is WORSE than inflation. A classic case of the cure being worse than the desease.
Oh yeah. Many lost jobs, livlihoods, considerd suicide for the insurance pay out, lost their homes and had bad credit for a decade or more.
While another Great Depression is not something I want, one positive side effect would be to eliminate much of the wokeness we have to deal with today. IMHO, Woke ideology can only thrive in a time of great prosperity when people can engage in flights of absurd fantasy without consequences. Removing cheap money will reign that in.

Very good point. And it will be fun to see them squirm. Already seeing bits and pieces of that already and it’s delicious.
I think the humans will deplete befor the game animals run out.
